THE RENDITION VERITE THE FIRST PC GPU ▀ A SHORT LOOK AT EARLY 3D ACCELERATION

Not so long ago i stumbled upon a very nice [sadly abandoned] YT channel dedicated to retro hardware. In showcased video author reviewed [Rendition Verite] , a deeply flawed card which had the distinction of being the first “programmable graphics processor” or GPU for the IBM PC compatible computers. It was also pretty much the only card that could compete with the Voodoo1 when it was released. Also make sure to check [other videos of the channel] , they are very high-quality in terms of material presentation.

FALLOUT ▀ VAULT13 [TBD]

FALLOUT ▀ VAULT13 [TBD]

Is an ambitious project to replicate Fallout 1 world using Fallout 4 engine. Currently game in it’s early stage of development, but location of Shady Sands was already showcased to the public. Developers intend to redo original voice-over because of copyright trademarks. Moreover they are trying to copy voice aesthetics as close as possible to original Fallout 1. Also you can already preview multiple soundtracks created by [Radiofloyd] . As for me, I really like what they are doing, despite the fact that I’m not fond of Fallout 3/4.
UNREAL REDUX ▀ FAN MADE REMASTER

UNREAL REDUX ▀ FAN MADE REMASTER

[Unreal] is a cult 3D shooter developed by EpicMegaGames back in the 1998. Game unfairly received much less attention comparing to well-known Half-life, despite: more beautiful computer graphics, more atmospheric soundtrack and better overall design. One of the first games to implement 32-bit color and complex illumination. Reason: game was more demanding on system resources. Pentium II with at least 128Mb of ram and powerful GFX accelerator were mandatory requirements.

BEST MAD ONION 3D BENCHMARKS

BEST MAD ONION 3D BENCHMARKS

The most coolest benchmarks from Finish masters. Gradually Futuremark [which consumed Mad Onion] works had lost glitter of demoscene awesomeness and became just dry showcase room of current GPU technologies. And yeah, soundtrack of modern benchmarks represent boredom at it’s best. 3DMARK 1999 MAX [DOWNLOAD] XL-R8R [PRE 3DMARK 2000] [DOWNLOAD] 3DMARK 2000 [DOWNLOAD] 3DMARK 2001 SE [DOWNLOAD] 3DMARK 2003 OUTRO Simply put the best part of 3DMark 2003. 3DMARK 2005 OUTRO POETS OF THE FALL - LIFT ME UP Simply put the best part of 3DMark 2005.
MY TERRAGEN LANDSCAPE ACTIVITY

MY TERRAGEN LANDSCAPE ACTIVITY

As you may already know [I like to do landscape and industrial photography] . But when taking plain pictures don’t fun me enough I’m doing simple 3D graphics in Blender. Not long ago I have discovered [Terragen] software. Software can produce pretty good terrain landscapes. Here are my results, hope that you’ll find them entertaining. I’ve tried to keep the picuture size small, not to generate big traffic. Imagery by spacedrone808 @Adobe Imagery by spacedrone808 @Freepik
